Antiphon
I lift my soul to you, I trust you, Lord my God.
No-one who waits on you will ever be put to shame.
Verse
Teach me how to live, Lord,
Show me the way,
Steer me towards your truth,
You my saving God, you my constant hope.
I lift my soul to you, I trust you, Lord my God.
No-one who waits on you will ever be put to shame.
Glory to the Father, glory to the Son,
Glory to the Holy Spirit now and ever more.
Christmas Introit

The Lord said to me: You are my Son.
I have begotten you, begotten you this day.
Verse
God speaks to the earth,
the word speeds forth.
God speaks his word to Jacob,
to Israel his laws and decrees.
Response
The Lord said to me: You are my Son.
I have begotten you, begotten you this day.
The Introits have been recorded by members of the St Mungo Singers at rehearsal as a learning aid.
